Ventus RS3 are decent. Have you considered BFGs?

what size tires you looking to run?
seems like f14s look good on everything.
i think they are my second favorite wheel on a g8 besides the ccw sp510....
looks really good regardless!
post up pics!

I'll post pics as soon as I get them in. I'm running 275 Kumho Ecsta XS up front and 315 Hankook Ventus RS2s out back because Kumho still has the 315 on backorder. The RS2s are pretty good until I get my Kumhos.
